Tonto Dikeh Opens Up On Relationship With Governor Nyesom Wike

Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh has revealed that although some people might say Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State is her uncle, she sees him as the number one citizen of the state.

In an interview on Your View, TVC, the actress said that the governor has a personal relationship with her father and family. 

“He’s our number one citizen. I do believe that he has a personal relationship with my father and my family.

"Some people might say he’s my uncle but I’ll just like to see him as the number one citizen of Rivers State.”

She also mentioned that the governor has not supported her political ambition in any way.

According to her, she doesn't see that as a problem because Wike does not know what she is capable of.

“No, he has never been supportive of me in any form or way but that is not a problem, because it is the people who know you that will ignore that you can shine until other people support you for you to grow.

"I do not take it personal. He just doesn’t know what I’m capable of.”

Tonto Dikeh is the running mate for Tonte Ibraye of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Rivers State.
